My boyfriend and I have been together for five and a half years. He's always been into games, but a year into our relationship, it's been an addiction. Everyday he's playing something for hours. It's gotten to the point with his new game that he's been playing for about two months, that it is literally all he does when he is home. I've taken every approach to get him away from it and nothing has worked. I've tried to make him miss me by hiding in the bedroom and going somewhere, and it doesn't really work. It's been really bad lately, but it's been bad throughout our relationship when it comes to this. I've asked him in the past, "Me or the games" and he would say "If you would make me give up what I love, I wouldn't even want to be with you." It hurts SO much to be ignored because of a video game. I wouldn't mind if it was just in moderation but it's not. I even play games every once in a while. I got sucked into Fallout New Vegas, but I knew when enough was enough.
I can't take it anymore. I want someone who wants to spend time with me. I think I deserve it. All I feel like is a maid. I've been an emotional mess because I feel so alone and I've talk to him about it all he says is "Why? Why? Why? Whatever. Whatever."
I don't want to throw away such a long relationship.
Yeah I suggested a movie tonight and he said that he wanted to go ahead and get it over with because he wanted to play a game. Needless to say, I got turned off and decided to pass on the movie.
